Brian,
That seems high, a work around might be to lower the insured amount if you
don't have avionics, engine and prop installed. With all or some of the big
items safely stored elsewhere, you could now insure the hull for what you
have in it, or a bit more. I paid a lot less and was adament about coverage
for the one time trip to the airport.
I just renewed with London. My agent said all others declined due to the
existing unsettled claim. I paid 4k my first year, and now am paying 3400
the second year for 120k hull value. The price would go up to 4k if I use
140 as the hull value.
Good luck trying to find someone to insure you and with your final stages in
getting your Rocket finished. I don't know what accident has ruined the
Harmon Rocket reputation but I would sure like to know.
BTW, I am a retired Navy Fighter guy, a UPS 757/767 Captain, and have in the
neighborhood of 8000 hours total with 150 time in type, with no mishaps are
claims. If the insurance companies are declining coverage with my
experience, I have to assume it's the airplane that is high risk not the
pilot. My buddy has an RV-4 and he pays 1400 per year but it is only work
half of a Rocket.
I suspect we may be at the point where you can only buy liability for new
policies.
BTW,I have a great agent who worked hard for me, his name Mike Pratt at
502-905-8747 mpratt@jmpinsurance.com

I paid $1000 for 1 year builders insurance ($100k hull) through Falcon
during my build. I would also check Cannon and see what they can do.
$1700 seems too high.
